How should secure documents be disposed of when files are purged?

Documents containing personal, financial, or proprietary information must be destroyed — not simply discarded. Options: cross-cut shredder (NIST SP 800-88 recommends cross-cut for sensitive documents), micro-cut shredder for highest security, or a contracted shredding service (NAID certified) for volume destruction. Cardboard and unshredded paper can be recycled. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we recommend developing a documented purge and destruction protocol alongside any filing system overhaul — call 1-800-460-0858 for filing system guidance.
